Cool Smiles per miles

Had "Pooky Bear" 1 month now. Have covered 700 miles. Been to 3 meets. Other than road tax, insurance and petrol, total outlay has been £20.
Stunning car to drive, although I still love Banana.

Default Dilemma

Must be tricky...the fabulous Banana or that V8 rumble...
Perhaps you need to clone yourself Bob, that way you can take both!
Or

Just thinking....

A nice car trailer and you can take Banana to the meets as well. Sure the V8 wouldn't complain.....


Enjoy Bob...

I would love to trailer Banana to events Chris, but I have nowhere to park a trailer. Bad enough trying to park 2 cars.

700 miles in a month....!!!!! That was about half my annual mileage Bob

Glad you're enjoying the car, I'm sure I'm going to regret selling when I see you next

Now covered 1500 miles and loving every mile. Spending some money out on her. New tyres + rear disc's + pads. Other than that she is exactly the same. Love the sound when you give it a bit of welly. Be in Weymouth for Ian's Jurassic Jaunt in March.

I don't know if you are a member on the 260s, but the new rear discs that they are going to have made up look fantastic, and for the price of the discs from Rimmers, you can have a matching full set. http://www9.mg-cars.org.uk/mgoc260/f...nt-brake-discs

Mine are on order, can't wait to get them fitted

Yes I'm on the 260's, forum name Pooky Bear, and have ordered a full set of disc's, paid deposit, but I need the disc's now. I've bought a pair of rears + sensors + pads from DMGRS.

So a complete set as spares will be put away until required.

Standard discs can be skimmed

I am not sure about Drilled/Grooved
